Information regarding tax case:

The Swedish Supreme
Administrative Court has denied the Swedish Tax Agency's leave to
appeal. This confirms the previous clear ruling from the
Administrative Court of Appeal in December 2013 that the company
has paid tax in accordance with applicable law.

"The ruling by the
Administrative Court of Appeal is clear, and we are pleased that we
are now able to conclude these legal proceedings." says Joakim
Karlsson, Managing Partner, NC Advisory AB, advisor to the Nordic
Capital Funds.

"It is positive for Sweden that we now have a legal
ruling in place that encourages private equity funds, their
advisors as well as international investors to invest in Sweden.
Sweden as a country has thereby demonstrated awareness of the
private equity industry's value for building a stronger, more
enterprising Sweden," adds Kristoffer Melinder, also Managing
Partner at NC Advisory AB, advisor to the Nordic Capital
Funds.
